Grundlagen des Burrows-Wheeler-Kompressionsalgorithmus

Der Burrows-Wheeler-Kompressionsalgorithmus hat als ein universelles Kompressionsverfahren in den letzten Jahren aufgrund seiner hervorragenden Kompressionsraten und hohen Verarbeitungsgeschwindigkeiten eine bemerkenswerte Beachtung erfahren. Das Herzstück des Algorithmus stellt die sogenannte Burrows-Wheeler-Transformation dar. Es handelt sich bei dieser Transformation um eine Permutation der Eingabedaten, welche Zeichen mit ähnlichem Kontext nahe beieinander anordnet. Die Transformation sowie die zugehörige Rücktransformation werden zusammen mit den weiteren Stufen des Algorithmus in einer gegenüber der Standardversion verbesserten Variante vorgestellt und die Ergebnisse mit denen anderer Datenkompressionsalgorithmen verglichen.     

Scholarly communication trends — voices from the vortex: a summary of specialist opinion

期刊论文被引用及其Web全文下载的文献计量分析

运用《中国学术期刊综合引证报告》及《中国学术期刊全文数据库Web下载统计报告》的文献计量数据分析了期刊论文网上下载频次的年代分布和被引用频次的年代分布，对比了它们的峰值（百分数）和峰值与统计年的年限差，得到“去年发表的论文被下载多，前年发表的论文被引用多，当年发表的论文下载频次与被引频次的比值高”这一规律性认识。研究了文献的网上下载频次分布和被引用频次的分布，对比了它们的集中系数。鉴于文献网上下载指标的排序与被引用指标的排序并不完全一致，建议将它们都作为独立指标在综合评价中予以适当考虑。

Validating the Willingness to Self-Censor Scale: Individual Differences in the Effect of the Climate of Opinion on Opinion Expression

Hayes, Glynn, and Shanahan (2005) defined self-censorship asthe withholding of one’s opinion around an audience perceivedto disagree with that opinion. They argued that people differin their willingness to self-censor and introduced an 8-itemself-report instrument, the Willingness to Self-Censor scale,to measure this individual difference. The results of an experimentalstudy presented here provide further evidence of the constructvalidity of the scale. Each participant in the study was presentedwith a hypothetical scenario that contained information suggestinga group of people the participant was conversing with abouta controversial topic held opinions that were either uniformlysimilar to or different from the participant’s own opinion.Four weeks prior, each participant had responded to the Willingnessto Self-Censor scale and a measure of dispositional shyness.As expected, the manipulation of the climate of opinion affectedwillingness to express an opinion to the group, but more soamong those who scored relatively high on the Willingness toSelf-Censor scale. These results support the notion that somepeople rely on information about the climate of opinion moreso than do others when they decide whether or not to voice theiropinion publicly, and they suggest that the Willingness to Self-Censorscale measures this individual difference.     

State of the art of expert searching: results of a Medical Library Association survey.

OBJECTIVES: Medical Library Association (MLA) members were surveyed to gather background about the current state of expert searching in institutions. The survey results were intended to guide the recommendations of the Task Force on Expert Searching for promoting the importance of expert searching and implementing those recommendations. METHODS: MLA members were surveyed, and data obtained from the survey were compiled and analyzed to answer three general questions: what is the perceived value of searching skills to the institution, how do health sciences librarians maintain and improve their searching skills, and how are searching services promoted and/or mandated in the institution. RESULTS: There were 256 responses to the survey. Over 95% of the respondents saw their expert-searching skills were of value to their institutions, primarily through performing mediated searches and search consultations. Over 83% of the respondents believed that their searching skills had improved over the past 10 years. Most indicated that continued training was very important in maintaining and improving their skills. Respondents promoted searching services most frequently through orientations, brochures, and the libraries' Web pages. No respondent's institution mandated expert searching. Less than 2% of respondents' institutions had best practice guidelines related to expert searching, and only about 8% had guidelines or policies that identified situations where expert searching was recommended. CONCLUSIONS: The survey supports the belief that health sciences librarians still play a valuable role in searching, particularly in answering questions about treatment options and in providing education. It also highlights the need for more expert searching courses. There has been minimal discussion about the perceived need for expert-searching guidelines in the institutions represented by survey respondents.     

当代媒介文化背景下大学生媒介素养培养探析

我国当代媒介文化呈现价值取向多元化的特点,拓宽了当代大学生视野的同时,也给处在价值观形成阶段的大学生产生了负面影响。近年来,我国大学生在媒介文化消费和传播中暴露出诸多不良行为,充分说明当代大学生媒介素养水平亟待提升。培养大学生媒介素养应以社会主义核心价值观为价值导向;以促进学生发展为根本宗旨;以批判性思维为重要抓手。推进我国大学生媒介素养培养应抓住以下三个方面:确立媒介素养课程目标,借鉴美国一流大学经验、立足我国国情,课程目标应涵盖批判性思维、合作沟通、媒介鉴赏、信息获取分析、创造媒介产品、信息技术运用,以及坚持以社会主义核心价值观为导向、坚持文化自信;开发媒介素养课程内容;加强大学教师媒介素养的在职培训。
